The Ducks have recalled center Michael Sgarbossa and left wing Ondrej Kase from the San Diego Gulls, Anaheim's primary development affiliate in the American Hockey League (AHL). In addition, the Ducks have reassigned goaltender Dustin Tokarski to San Diego.

Sgarbossa, 24 (7/25/92), has earned one assist (0-1=1) in four games with the Ducks this season. He picked up his first assist as a Duck and the second of his NHL career in Anaheim's 6-1 victory over the Nashville Predators on Oct. 26 at Honda Center. Acquired from Colorado on Mar. 2, 2015, Sgarbossa has collected 0-2=2 points with 14 penalty minutes (PIM) in 14 career NHL games with the Ducks and Avalanche. The 6-0, 188-pound forward began the season in San Diego, collecting one goal (1-0=1) in two games with the Gulls.

Kase, 20 (11/8/95), collected 2-2=4 points with a +3 rating and two PIM in six games with the Gulls this season. Selected by Anaheim in the seventh round (205th overall) of the 2014 NHL Draft, Kase has recorded 10-8=18 points with eight PIM in 31 career AHL games with San Diego. The 6-0, 180-pound forward has also appeared in nine career Calder Cup Playoff games, earning 1-3=4 points with the Gulls.

Tokarski, 27 (9/16/89), appeared in one game with Anaheim this season, stopping all five shots on Oct. 28 vs. Columbus. Tokarski owns a 10-12-5 record with one shutout, a 2.84 goals-against average (GAA) and .904 save percentage (SV%) in 34 career NHL games with Anaheim, Montreal and Tampa Bay. Acquired from Montreal in exchange for Max Friberg on Jan. 7, 2016, Tokarski has posted a 2-1-0 record with a 4.04 GAA and .864 SV% in three games with the Gulls this season.
